  • In recent weeks, some of America's most powerful law firms have faced a defining choice: do a deal with the White House, or prepare to fight severe restrictions President Donald Trump has placed on firms and lawyers he opposes politically.

The article from MSN discusses how major law firms are actively opposing former President Donald Trump's attempts at retribution against those involved in legal actions against him.

In response, prominent law firms such as WilmerHale, Gibson Dunn & Crutcher, and others have stepped up to represent these officials pro bono, emphasizing the importance of an independent judiciary and the rule of law.
